Stuck in Boot Animation After KernelSU Module Update on POCO X4 Pro 5G: Troubleshooting Guide

Having issues with your POCO X4 Pro 5G getting stuck in the boot animation after a KernelSU module update? This can be frustrating, but don't worry, we'll guide you through the steps to troubleshoot and hopefully recover your device.

First, ensure you've tried the standard recovery methods outlined in KernelSU's official documentation:

* **Force Reboot:** Hold the power button for 15+ seconds. This should initiate a hard reset, returning your device to a pre-update state and disabling recently installed modules.
* **Safe Mode:** Depending on your ROM (in this case, crDroid A13), long-pressing the volume down button during boot or accessing Safe Mode within Recovery might automatically disable KernelSU modules and allow you to boot.
* **KernelSU Safe Mode:** Repeatedly press and release the volume down button three times or more after the initial boot screen. This should activate KernelSU's built-in Safe Mode and disable any potentially conflicting modules.

If these standard methods don't work, here are some additional steps you can try:

* **Check for Log Files:** Even if your device is stuck, there might be log files containing clues about the issue. Look for any error messages related to KernelSU or the module you recently installed. These logs might be available in a different partition or accessible through a computer via ADB.
* **Rollback Your KernelSU Installation:** If possible, revert your KernelSU installation to a previously stable version. This can sometimes resolve issues caused by newer module updates.
* **Factory Reset:** As a last resort, consider performing a factory reset. **Be aware that this will erase all data on your device,** so make sure you have a backup before proceeding.

**Important Notes:**

The detailed troubleshooting steps above may vary slightly depending on your specific POCO X4 Pro 5G model, ROM version, and KernelSU configuration. Always refer to the official KernelSU documentation and community forums for the most up-to-date and device-specific guidance.
